Okay, but I don't see what being "kitted up" has to do with anything. It just read like you were bragging about riding faster in casual gear on an old bike. I find that riding kitted out on a race bike does tend to attract "racers" in the same way that it does when driving a fast car. I tend to just ignore the obvious race baiters, which is probably what is happening to you here.
